Atharva Veda 3.31.11: Kanda 3, Anuvaka 4, Sukta 31, Mantra 11

Sukta 31

आप॒र्जन्य॑स्य वृ॒ष्ट्योद॑स्थामा॒मृता॑ व॒यम्। व्य॑१हं सर्वे॑ण पा॒प्मना॒ वि यक्ष्मे॑ण॒ समायु॑षा

ā́ párjanyasya vṛ́ṣṭyód asthāmā́mṛtā vayám | vy àháṃ sárveṇa pā́pmanā ví yákṣmeṇa samā́yuṣā ||

By Parjanya’s rain we have risen up—made, as it were, deathless. I drive away, with all malignity, the wasting sickness, and (set us) with a full term of life.

पर्जन्य देवता की बारिश से हम उठ खड़े हुए हैं। अब हम अमृत जैसे हो गए हैं, मरने वाले नहीं। मैं सबसे सारी बुरी चीज़ें भगा देता हूँ। यह बिमारी जो खोखला करती है, वो मैं दूर करता हूँ। हम पूरी उम्र तक जियो।
